men from Keysvie went hunting in the
Fish Eating creek neighborhood few days
since and met with unusual success, among
other things killing a fine bear, weighing
nearly 500 pounds. The dogs ran it into
the canehrake and the Doctor had to crawl
in ON his hands and knees 10 get a shot. He
found Bruin slapping the dogs right and
left, but he soon put stop to that. Having
been mSinformed as to the location OF the

them to escape.
